I can really only think of Cam and Landon Collins

Devall and Williams have been successful but LSU either never really pursued or backed off


Eddie Lacy had a solid career at Bama but it's not like we've lacked for good RB's (Blue, Ridley, Hill, and Ware are all in the NFL). Missing out on Cam (and Greg Robinson) hurts.

The amount of talent in LA is more than we can accommodate. There will be kids from LA that we pass on who will go to other schools, find their niche, have productive careers, and we'll wonder why we didn't sign them. And most of the time it's simply a #'s game.

LSU really didn't pursue because of grades and it is still amazing that the guy was able to make up that much ground to become eligible at Bama, a marvel of modern education!

Losing Landon Collins didn't hurt as bad as we thought it would on the field, but that fiasco with his commitment stung. Cam Robinson is a big miss, hell of a player that we would have loved to see here.
